Lyrics

Fool For A Lonesome Train

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

It's late and I can't sleep

I've made promises that I can't keep

Cobblestones and broken bones, has a kingdom but he's got no home

Last night is still ringing in my head like that lonesome whistle in the rain

I'm a fool for a lonesome train

I'm a fool for a lonesome train

The lifetime we've left behind with strangers

Promises and lies both have their dangers

I just can't be wrong enough and I can't hide for long enough

So far away, but I still feel your pain

I'm a fool for a lonesome train

I'm a fool for a lonesome train

I'd try to say goodbye but I never got your name

I'm a fool for a lonesome train

I'm a fool for a lonesome train

I'm your fool for a lonesome train

I know it sounds crazy but I'm painfully sane

I'm your fool for a lonesome, lonesome, lonesome train
